Horne, who took his Test cap tally to 15 when he came off the bench during the second Test against the Lions in Melbourne last month, will be hoping for a decent run injury-free next season before again weighing up his future.

"I'm really pleased to be staying in Australia, especially with so much to look forward to in the coming season," the 24-year-old said.

"I am really excited at what I think the New South Wales group can achieve."
